Kate Fenton, an influencer who is among a number of women who have built a movement called The Lunatique, focused on changing the stigma behind mental illnesses for women.

Youfoodz, as a company, is filled with many incredible women who lead and inspire their teams each day! I couldn't even list the number of talented women who have helped build this incredible company into what it is. I think Youfoodz does a wonderful job of celebrating not only women within our company and their achievements but also women in the Australian community.
